The Secretary by Jeiana Airen (adult books to read TXT) 📕

I just nod and grab my bag and went to the elevator.  Raine called for Peter to get the car and he then instruct him to go straight to a prestigious salon were only celebrities could afford.  He talked to the staff and gave a big box right after they fix my hair and make up.  It was a haltered red dress that shows most of my back with v-neckline that hugs my body and the skirt flows out to the back.The surprise did not stop as he also gave me shoes to wear with it.  As soon as i am ready he turns me around to face the body length mirror and i don't look like myself.  I know that my face looks like a school girl but this time I was just different.

"Not bad at all and now you are all set" Raine said leading me to the car.     

We left the boutique and I really can't believe on who i saw on that mirror back there.  The elegance and beauty she portray as if a different person.  She moves the way i do and speak the way i do, i guess i now understand why some girls loves to have money more than anything.  But i am still me and i am very grateful for the chance that he gave to me.  Even just for one night i can be me or at least be like a dream.  When we arrive at the hotel, i was very nervous and i can't seem to move.  He then touch me gently on my arm to guide me out the car.  He was very gentle like a prince, very far from the arrogant perfectionist boss i have. He guide me in to the hotel but when i remember what happen at the dinner and the occasion was of christians, i need to do something.    

Using the map along with the invitation i tried to navigate our way in, to avoid anything that symbolizes a true christian that i know can affect him in a lot of ways.  We found our safe entrance into the ballroom.  It was a big room that looks so magical to me.  Everybody was laughing as they share the spirit of christmas, though some of the guest are there to talk about work.  Among the crowds are a few individual i know because of work.  The most amazing part was nobody recognize me so he ask me to have a good time and enchant some men.  I almost roll my eyes at him but i resisted and did as he told me to do.   

After some hi and hello the host came into the mic to send their gratitude to the guests and introduce the group of children to sing.  The St. Ignatius choir singe beautifully and i was mesmerize by their voices but then i feel danger.  I left my place to immediately look for him, i was almost at a run but i can't seem to find him.  Then i went looking along the side of the room near the banquet and saw him laughing with someone.  I did not hesitate and grab his hand directing him to the exit into the hall.  "

What do you think you are doing?" he shout.

"You seem to be OK but i know better!"He begun to lean and whisper "Just like my perfect secretary" then he fell into my arms

  He was sleeping like a child without any worry and i started to stare at him.  His nose was pointed and his lips looks so soft to touch, then i remember its feel on my neck whenever he drinks blood.  My heart beats faster and i lean near to his face thinking if i could kiss him just one time.  I gently touch his cheeks to feel how innocent he is when he sleep then he suddenly open his eyes and asked "Is there something wrong?"

"Nothing!  You were knocked out. I even threatened the reception for this room.  We are in the same hotel ad you need to rest."      

He tried to sit up and i helped him,  seeing how weak he is it breaks my heart.  Without even thinking i immediately offered to call some of his girls to feed.  "No that would cause a drama.  They may start to think that they are important just because i call them during christmas".

"But you have to feed.  then i guess i will be enough for now"

"If it is alright?"

"Are you asking for a permission?" my eyes were wide because of his inquiry and i never though he would have such an attitude.  "Of course you can"  I grab my hair to my right side shoulder so he can easily access my neck.  He somewhat hesitate but hold me steady to sink his teeth on the space between my neck and my shoulder.  It was so amazing, i can hear him seeping and how some of my blood rush into his mouth.  My mind was hazy and i know i should be hurt but i'm not and i am lost completely by his touch and his lips touching my shoulder.  I did not even notice that he was done drinking and now licking some of the blood that was spilled.  His soft tongue touching and i shudder, he took that right moment to look into me then lean and kiss me.  This kiss was different i know and i also took the opportunity and i kiss him back.  When he felt that i was responding, he  shove me back and as we catch our breath he said "You can go home now, leave me alone."    

My heart shattered into pieces as i hold my tears back.  I immediately grab my shoal and purse and head out the door.  I was greeted by Peter who offered to escort me home and i refused.  I started walking and i did not even notice that i am already at a sprint, just when i though it was raining and touch my cheek only to realized that i was crying.  When i reach home my legs are numbed, hand cold and i shiver because of the pain and loneliness i felt.  Stuck and frozen i dropped on the ground only to be held up by a sturdy hands.  Surprised at the man that i did not recognize until i blinked and let the light reveal the person that is Deslan.  Raine's brother and the company's HR manager, who looks worried and know of my situation.  I can't help myself and cried in his arms.

"I'm sorry" i whisper

"It's ok, i understand.  Can i help you with anything else?  I may already have an idea of what is going on you know and i know a way to resolve this.  You only need to give me permission to do so."  

I just nod and utter a thank you without caring if he even heard it then waved goodbye.  For now all i want to do is rest and sleep the night away if i can.  I walked inside the house that is dark and cold.  My mom is still at her friends house and i did not even dare to call her since i do not want her seeing me like this.  This may already be too much but i can seem to go away.  I am like a moth who is so fascinated with fire that i didn't even notice that it was already burning me alive.  He was done feeding and the need to kiss me is not necessary.  He had sex with those women in order to make the blood delicious which he never did with me that made it very confusing.  It was like he was entering an unknown boundary that was not supposed to be there.  I curled up on my bed hugging my pillow tight and cried off to sleep.    

Since it was holiday, it means no work and it means i won't be seeing him.  I have all the time to think everything thoroughly.  Just when i thought there was time the days of vacation ended and came another Monday.  I don't know why but whenever i remember his soft lips i get lost then break my heart at his voice asking me to leave.  Really, up to now I am still not use to this arrogant boss of mine. My body seems to have a mind on its own that i react to everything around me.  My heart race at every sound of footstep getting near the office or maybe through the stairs.  Then he entered the office, same egoistic and unemotional boss with another girl in his arms.    

Seeing him with another girl seems to hurt more than it had before.  That's when i know that i had enough and this is not what i want, at least not anymore.  As i thought about it i realized that tears come running down my cheek and so i hurried to go to the bathroom in order to hide this.  It can't be right and if anyone in the office would see me, it would create a damage on this best secretary.  Once i calm down i went to Mr Deslan's office to talk to him on his offer.

 15.  DESLAN    

"What do you know about Elizabeth, how is your brother?" Margaret asked. Deslan was taken a back by the question as his mother has never taken any attention to anyone aside from the people in the family.  Margaret seems to give special attention to Elizabeth since her visit at the office for Raine and met his perfect secretary.    

"Well, Elizabeth is one of the company's best employee mother.  What exactly do you want to know?"  Deslan replied.  Deslan was actually thinking that his mother might already know what was happening and it can't be good for the family.  he is well aware that their grandfather have already requested his mother's presence at the last meeting.  The only reason why his mother would go to the council was if there was something important about his brother.  being the brother of the vampire heir is not that easy beside being human all the work load and secrecy also have its own toll.  Deslan may not be a vampire but he is one important person as he is assigned to take good care of the heir and everything around it.  That same reason is what he needed to protect Elizabeth as well.  He is quite aware of the situation
